Uncategorised German WWI Veterans Badge

[Signalcorps45]

Hello to everyone,

I purchased this veterans association badge today. I have seen a number of German veterans association badges, but not one for German soldiers that fought on the Eastern front (Russia). I thought it was unique and wanted to share.

I used to have one of those on a medal bar, they are actually not that common.
